Default Body Shop & Paint Recommendations

Just curious if anyone can shed some light on what some of the nicer body shops are nowadays in Roanoke? Does anyone have any first hand experience or stories they can share on recent work? Of course I don't want to spend 5-6 grand on paint but 3-4 would be reasonable if the quality is there. To make a long story short a tree fell on the back of the sc300, it's honestly not that bad just a small dent and some scratches but I've been considering having the whole car re-done. What do you guys recommend? From my searches on here I get alot of good reviews with Woodings, Hannabass & Rowe , and Cuz's in Salem but that was back in 2009. I'd like to hear where the good painters are now and a shop that is going to do good work without dirt in the paint and without skimping / cutting corners.

Thanks,
Andrew

Wooding's would be my first choice.Euro Specialty would probably be my second.
Not sure how bad the damage is as far as how much bodywork it'll require,but assuming it's not too much,$3-$4k can get a full respray from a reputable shop.

The fact that you don't know who he is is a perfect representation of his actual involvement here.

Cheers.
